ROCKPORT, ME – U.S. Senator Angus King (I-Maine) today announced his support for the Self-Initiation Trade Enforcement Act, bipartisan legislation which would amend the Tariff Act of 1930 to create a permanent task force at the International Trade Administration (ITA), an agency within the Department of Commerce, to focus specifically on trade violations affecting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). To further underscore the significance of SMEs for hardworking American citizens and the U.S. economy, Senator King wrote to President Trump urging his continued support for funding and resources for SMEs within the Department of Commerce and International Trade Commission.
